We believe in building emotionally strong, adaptive, resilient, and resourceful students who are ready to lead happy and thriving lives. 

An area that sets La Salle apart is our comprehensive social-emotional curriculum and support services for families. Our counselors are trained to listen with empathy, support students through life’s challenges, and implement personalized support plans for families. Our Healthy Choices curriculum is woven into all four years of high school and includes lessons, activities, workshops, and guest speakers.

The many ways we support our students.

Our programs are spotlighted below and reimagined each year to fit the current needs and social climate of parents and students.

Ongoing One-on-One Meetings

At La Salle, our student meetings go beyond simple grade checks. Counselors build meaningful relationships with students and provide a safe space for reflection and open dialogue. When appropriate, counselors also collaborate with parents and connect students to community resources for comprehensive, wraparound support.

Care Solace

Care Solace is a confidential and complimentary service for La Salle families. They navigate the healthcare system for you to find mental health providers matched to your specific needs. In times of distress and chaos, Care Solace makes accessing care easier than ever before. Care coordinators are available 24/7/365 in over 200+ languages. Click here to access Care Solace.

Wellness Day

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and Wellness Day offers students a chance to pause, reflect, and recharge. Through engaging activities, students learn about the importance of wellness, how to recognize risk factors, and the value of destigmatizing mental health needs. Moments of calm and joy are especially meaningful at the busy end of the school year. Past events have included therapy miniature horses and dogs, DJ sets in the amphitheater, yoga, food trucks, art stations, and more.

Guest Speakers

Experts in their fields are invited to present every year to the student body. Our featured guest speakers have presented on social media and digital safety, mental health and coping skills, and anti-bullying.

Healthy Choices Lessons

Embedded from 9-12th grade, the healthy choices curriculum is delivered through our Mentor period. Topics vary each year and have included the following:
  • Mindfulness and meditation
  • Anxiety and stress management
  • Developing self-awareness and life skills
  • Building positive coping skills and resiliency
  • Boundary setting and healthy relationships
  • Conflict resolution and communication styles
  • The power of choice and decision making

Community Referrals

We keep a comprehensive list of mental health referrals that are available to our parents and students. Providers include therapists, teen groups, educational psychologists, and treatment centers.

How we collaborate with parents.

In addition to working with students to ensure they are well equipped to tackle all aspects of their schooling, we also collaborate with parents to provide the tools and information to ensure success in parenting a La Salle student.

Care Solace

Care Solace is a confidential and complimentary service available to all La Salle parents, not just the students. It helps all members of the family connect with mental health providers matched to their specific needs. We believe wellness begins within the family system, and supporting parents is just as important. Care coordinators are available 24/7/365 in over 200 languages. Click here to access Care Solace.

Coffee with the Counselors

is held every semester. Our session offerings are different each time to be relevant to what parents need. Sessions in the past have included mental health & supporting our teens, parent panel, social-emotional toolkit, and therapist guest speakers.

Guest Speakers

In addition to presenting to our students, guest speakers often tailor their presentations for a parent’s perspective. Guest speakers in the past have presented on social media, teen relationships and personal safety, social-emotional wellness, and academic skills building.

Community Referrals

When parents need additional support, counselors are knowledgeable resources. We can connect families to community providers. A helping educational psychologist, therapist, or treatment program is just a referral away.
